  1. Only question I can help with there is the gauge readings, all sound pretty reasonable. My water sits at 80ish degrees unless I'm in traffic when it goes to 90 and the fan kicks in. Oil temp is same as mine unless I drive it hard and my oil pressure goes from 4bar on cold to 1.2bar idle
  2. Depo's FTW, crappy phone pics don't do these justice
  3. Sorry to hear this Glad I saw it in the flesh though at least once
  4. Sounds like I need a remap then judging by how good your car is! lol Could you recommend a strong uprated clutch which doesn't break the bank, but that drives like a normal one? Got a paddle in the GT which judders in 1st and the Leon is the runabout so it needs to be 100% practical/easy to drive 265bhp 440lb/ft jheeeez I can only imagine how that feels in a diesel
  5. WOW! Some of those pictures/locations are incredible! Soooo makes me wanna do something like this one day!
  6. I was a bit sceptical at mobile remaps, I mean it is common sense that RR remaps will always be better eh! With the new Leon there is a bit of clutch slip in 4th foot flat so I guess a new clutch is on the to do list before anything else! Mum wants an uprated one for peace of mind and if/when we decide to remap it. I've driven an uprated Sachs Clutch & DMF'ed Remapped 150 Golf and that drove really nicely! Hear the Sachs package is the one to go for? (Sticking with standard turbo, cooler etc just want a remap for current mods) The more I look at these Ibizas the more I want one lol can't
  7. Lots of differing opinions! Thanks for all of them, keeps it interesting The wheels are done and on the car, those who were at Japfest 2 will have seen them on the GT and they look very different in person in comparison to pics, very happy with them! There was a reaction on one of the spokes but meh you can't tell too much! Took the car for an early MOT a few days ago, failed on the nearside front top mount having excessive play Apart from that all good so I need to sort that. Gotta arrange insurance, tax and get my plate on too (as I still have a few weeks of MOT left from last year's tes
  8. All three of you should be in the group now Rob looking at your avatar I finally remember who you are now haha
  9. Nice one Adam Haha I already have a Turbo back decat system on the new one and have yet to put the green filter in from the last car, clutch and remap eventually but the car isn't driven hard to be honest! Sorry for the spam mini but you have sparked an interesting convo lol
  10. Haven't managed to post up until now but yeah I love my GT4 setup They already feel like they have braided lines and I had no brake fade on track, I stamped on them too! Using stock pads costing £21 They're not as sharp as before track (but still good), I'm guessing that's just because I wore the pads away quite a bit
  11. Wow! I always thought normal driving they'd give 1-2mpg better but drink more when you put your foot down? Good news then , thanks for that advice Would you recommend a custom remap then or a Revo? And is there such thing as an "eco remap"?
  12. Thanks for that Shahzad! £85 Guys if anyone has a top-mount lying around please let me know!
  13. Please? Didn't come up on my BBM, add me 27139FDC Lies haha there's 20 of us
  14. You're kidding! Any idea of where I can get some top mounts? Had a look at Camskill and EP commerce and haven't managed to find them
  15. I'm starting to sway towards getting some new KYB gas shocks now. Looked for the top mounts online and can't find them, but then again the hassle of taking the springs off, swapping top mounts, putting it all back together..if the shocks were to knacker (the car is lowered 45mm) then it would just be time & money wasted :L Haha! Nah this is for the NA that hasn't been driven in ages, weird since it only did a few hundred miles since the last MOT! I might give em a shout, but like I said swaying towards new shocks atm Thanks for the replies guys
  16. Drive a GT and go from there! I know the feeling, I love my NA too much to get rid, but since I drove the GT I knew I didn't want to break that either! lol
  17. When you say a difference in fuel economy, is that for the better or worse?
  18. Car failed MOT on the above fault, does anyone know the cheapest place to get a new top mount and how much it is? Or am I best just replacing both front shocks instead? Thanks Amjad
  19. Looks smart What engine is it?
  20. I bought a new one from Toyota a week ago, wasn't more than £5 iirc
